It's easy to adapt to Slimming World and tastes absolutely delicious - what more could you want?

Five Frugal things I’ve done this week to save money {17th April 2015}….
Five frugal things I've done this week: 1. My new Fridge Freezer arrived on Monday and although I love it, it's certainly a lot bigger than it looked when I bought it. We thought to measure the depth and width in the shop to make sure it fit where we wanted it but we didn't really consider the height of it until it was delivered.It's at least a foot taller than our old one which means I can't store anything on top of it like I used to so Monday night was spent in the kitchen re-organising! The problem I have is that I have too much 'stuff' in the kitchen and even the shelves that we … [Read more...]
Wednesday’s Wardrobe – Hotter Shoes review….
Welcome to Wednesday's Wardrobe!In case you don't know, Wednesday’s Wardrobe is a weekly linky that I'll be co-hosting along with two fantastic bloggers, Emma and Sarah.We've had a quiet week this week after our traumas of last week with the washing machine dying on us. It turned out that it couldn't be fixed so we had to go and buy a new one - from Currys of all places. I was convinced they would be more expensive than anywhere else but they have some great deals on at the moment so they were the best value for money. The service was excellent too - chose it on Saturday evening … [Read more...]

A beginners guide to batch cooking – 10 top tips to help you get started…..
Today's post is dedicated to my new favourite thing - Batch Cooking.Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to be one of those die-hard batch cooking people who spend a whole day every month batch cooking meals to last them for the next four weeks but I do want to take what I already do one step further now that I have a little more freezer space than I had before.I'm going to consciously cook more foods that I can double up on so that I can gradually build up a stock of meals in the freezer and I'm hoping to gradually up my game a bit and find more recipes that are freezer friendly and … [Read more...]
The Best Day Ever…. #WWE #WWENewcastle
Master Frugal is a huge wrestling fan so imagine how excited he was when we were asked if we wanted to go along to the Metro Arena in Newcastle on Thursday to watch WWE Live!From the day he found out we were going he was counting down the sleeps but, I think I was actually more excited than he was because I had a secret - I knew that the lovely, lovely people behind the WWE Live tour had arranged for him to meet one of the Superstars backstage. Honestly, it killed me not telling him but I knew if we managed to keep it a secret it would be such a great surprise.So we got there early on … [Read more...]
